MISSING CAT

Sara from Northcote

Hello everyone,

Our cat Marley is still missing and hasn’t been home for almost 3 weeks now. We live in the Papanui/Northcote area. However, we moved here a few days before lockdown, so he may even be trying to get back to our old place on Armagh Street, Linwood. He is an indoor/outdoor cat who … View more
Hello everyone,

Our cat Marley is still missing and hasn’t been home for almost 3 weeks now. We live in the Papanui/Northcote area. However, we moved here a few days before lockdown, so he may even be trying to get back to our old place on Armagh Street, Linwood. He is an indoor/outdoor cat who loves to explore, but always pops in and out throughout the day, and will always come home when called for dinner. So, this is very unusual for him.

If you see him, or you have him please get in touch as we are desperate to have our fur baby back home with us. 😔

Please check your sheds, garages, gardens and under your deck in case he is hiding anywhere and too scared to come out.

I will attach a link below of the post I have put all over Facebook (this includes images of him and a little explanation)

www.facebook.com...

He is a grey and white domestic short hair tabby kitty. 18 months old, desexed, microchipped. Does not wear a collar as he keeps taking it off.

He is extremely loved and missed.

Please share around to help us get our Marley home to us safe and sound.

Thank you everyone

Coca-Cola Christmas in the Park has been cancelled for the first time in 26 years due to the coronavirus pandemic.

The free outdoor Christmas concert, usually attracts tens of thousands of Kiwi families at Christchurch’s Hagley Park and the Auckland Domain.

“Given the immense amount of planning and work involved in Coca-Cola Christmas in the Park, we’ve had to make the sad decision to postpone until next year due to the current uncertainty of Covid-19 restrictions around large public events," Annette Chillingworth, from Coca-Cola NZ, says.

Organisers are now looking towards how they could make the 2021 event "bigger and more spectacular than ever before".

The office feels almost back to normal

The office work was being hampered by 2 dogs and a Burmese cat sulking because the house is too quiet and demanding attention so we (animals and i) have made the executive decision for a little netflix binge in front of our lovely warm heat pump.

If your feeling cold on this miserable Autumn day start thinking about a new heat pump and or better lighting. We can remove your current worn out heat pump and install a new one or do a totally new install. Best of all we take away the old ones, decommison and as always recycle.

LEDs lighting also warms and brightens. You get more light for less power and they last far longer. We also use local Christchurch made lights, which is even better.

Feel free to ring Patrick in 021525123, email elusionelectrical@gmail.com. You can also google Elusion Electrical to find our website.

Central Christchurch housing developers have received $13 million in rebates from ratepayers in the past six years.

The council is considering whether to continue the scheme designed to encourage post-quake residential development in the CBD or let it expire on June 30.

Developers are calling on the council to continue the scheme, especially if it wants to reach its target of increasing the central city population to 20,000 by 2028, but opponents say the rebate is propping up "wealthy developers" at the expense of ratepayers.

Read more here and tell us what you think of the scheme in the comments below.
